Ingredient control
Maintain nutrient values, local prices, inclusion limits, availability, and version history for the ingredients your operation actually uses.
Software for nutritionist controlled decisions
Animal nutrition software for better feed decisions
Build diets from your ingredient library, compare costs and constraints, and keep the reasoning alongside each formulation. ForgeAI helps your team investigate and review; you make the final decision.
What animal feed formulation software does
Animal feed formulation software helps nutritionists organize ingredient data, define nutrient and inclusion constraints, calculate diet cost, compare scenarios, and document formulation decisions. DietForge applies that workflow across all supported species while keeping every input and final approval under the nutritionist's control.
From ingredient data to an approved diet
Good formulation software must do more than return a low price. It should show whether the diet is feasible, reveal the assumptions that shape the result, and connect nutrition choices to economic outcomes.
Constraint validation
Define nutrient minimums, maximums, ratios, and ingredient limits, then review feasibility before approving a result.
Least cost optimization
Calculate an ingredient combination that satisfies the nutritionist's constraints at the lowest computed cost for the reviewed inputs.
Variability analysis
Use shadow prices, sensitivity analysis, and optional stochastic optimization in beta to study changing prices and nutrient values.
Growth economics
For swine, compare diet cost, cost per gain, and income over feed cost. These economics tools are planned for the other livestock species.
Shared review
Keep formulations, comments, reports, and activity history in a shared workspace with role based access for the team.
A controlled formulation workflow
DietForge structures the calculation and review process. The software provides decision support, while the nutritionist provides context, judgment, and approval.
Prepare
Enter or import reviewed ingredient values, prices, requirements, and operational constraints.
Formulate
Run the optimizer and inspect nutrient delivery, feasibility, cost, and active constraints.
Compare
Change a price or assumption, preserve the scenario, and compare the nutritional and economic result.
Approve
Review the evidence, document the decision, and approve the final formulation under your team's process.
Current product scope
Built for animal nutrition teams.
All supported species are available on Free and Pro. Choose your species during onboarding. Models and reference standards vary by species. Cost per gain and income over feed cost are currently available for swine only; other livestock species are planned.
Animal feed formulation software questions
Direct answers for nutritionists and feed teams evaluating formulation software for their operation.
What is animal nutrition software?
Animal nutrition software helps nutritionists organize ingredient data, define nutrient and inclusion constraints, calculate diet cost, compare scenarios, and document formulation decisions. DietForge supports all supported species in a browser-based workspace where the nutritionist controls every input and final approval.
What is animal feed formulation software?
Animal feed formulation software calculates ingredient combinations that meet nutritional and production constraints. It can evaluate least cost diets, validate nutrient delivery, compare ingredient prices, and preserve formulation history. DietForge supports all supported species on Free and Pro.
How does DietForge manage ingredient price and nutrient variability?
Teams can update ingredient prices and nutrient values, rerun optimization, review shadow prices, and use sensitivity analysis to compare changing assumptions. Pro workspaces can also use stochastic optimization in beta to estimate the probability that nutrient constraints remain satisfied under ingredient variability.
Does animal nutrition software replace the nutritionist?
No. DietForge assists with calculation, comparison, validation, and documentation. The nutritionist remains responsible for ingredient data, requirements, constraints, interpretation, and approval of the final diet.
